do you like the rolex daytona, the most sought-after stainless steel chronograph in the world....:P
well if u are a daytona fan, i think u will like the white gold version..... for many years, the white gold daytona was available only with a leather strap but never with a bracelet...... somehow i never found the daytona attractive with a strap...... the watch was made for a bracelet and it's a match made in heaven.... hehe....
when rolex launched the white gold daytona on bracelet, there were only 2 dial options...... the silver and the matt black (more grey than black actually)..... current list price is S$39399....

as far as i know, the first few pieces of the 2 watches were traded at premium prices........ as time went on, dealers sold the watch at list price and now you can get them at a discount.......... well, it's not everyday that ppl will buy a S$40k watch right?...... after all the rich uncles and aunties have bought their share, who else...?? of cos the demand would drop and hence, selling prices also dropped....
one simply have to handle this watch to understand what is it about........ it feels substantial and hefty.......well, gold is heavier than steel.... since the whole watch is white gold, it certainly feels OOMMPHH!.... once on the wrist, it will constantly remind you that you are wearng a GOLD watch hehe..... no doubt about that...
internally, all daytona watches are the same..... as in they all use the 4130 movement, rolex's first in-house chronograph movement (with 72 hours of power reserve! go rolex go!)......... the models differ in materials, strap/bracelet and dial options.....

my favourite white gold daytona is the one in black dial...... the red hands look so beautiful against the matt black dial .... the contrast is strikingly HOT..... so far i have never seen anyone in the streets wearing this.......
in recent years, rolex have added more dial options for the white gold daytona on bracelet....... there are now the mother-of-pearl dial and the meteorite dial, not forgetting the diamond dials......... more choices for the bling bling crowd........ all very yummy and very nice......esp the black MOP dial...... haha, maybe u can't wait to own them all..... but that will take quite a load of cash....
